A:
If you have genuine concerns about a crime against a minor, the proper course of action is to report factual information to the appropriate authorities, such as local law enforcement or child protective services. They are equipped to investigate such matters properly.
If you believe there has been a failure of due process in an existing legal case, I would suggest consulting with a licensed attorney in your jurisdiction who can review the specific details and advise you on any appropriate legal remedies or appeals processes.
For sensitive matters involving minors or sexual assault allegations, it's crucial to proceed carefully and through proper legal channels. An experienced attorney can guide you on how to address your concerns lawfully and ethically.
